amezriWork sucked today. Meh. Whatever. Nothing new there.
Got home. Brother had made dinner. Then I convinced him to watch SGA with me. "Critical Mass," "Grace Under Pressure," "The Tower," "Conversion," and "Aurora." I was impressed that he sat through all of them since he keeps saying he doesn't like the show :-P![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
devildoll - I didn't have any problems playing the burned files, except I had to switch one of the video preferences to NTSC instead of Multi and that on some of the files, the audio sync in the last few minutes was a little off.
It seems my desktop is going through death throws. It just did the weird click-ping thing a few mintues ago. My borhter and I can't figure out what's wrong, other than the fact that the thing is 7 or 8 years old so parts are probably failing. He doesn't think it's a drive issue, so most likely if it dies completely, I'll at least be able to get my stuff off both drives. While he's home during break, I'm probably going to use his external drive enclosure to hook the drives to Talyn to burn stuff to DVD. Would be much easier than trying to use CD-Rs. Then I'm going to have to look into spending money to buy a new system.pgnblade, are you still willing to help me out with that? Looks like I'll be needing it soonish.
In the meantime, the bro says it'd probably be better if I turned the machine off when I wasn't using it and I'll probably keep my usage limited to Photoshop things I might be doing. I'll use Talyn for the browsing and mail.
PS, AIM won't be on 24/7 now, so if I'm not on, DON'T PANIC (ozw :-P)
Okay, off to bed. And... turning off the computer. Seriously, this thing has not been shut down for any length of time in. Years. YEARS. *sad*
